Last week’s U.S. Women’s Open champion, Allisen Corpuz, earned three degrees in five years at USC.

Mia Hammond still has three years left … of high school.

But that hasn’t stopped the 15-year-old Hammond, a rising sophomore at New Albany (Ohio) High, from making the most of her LPGA debut. Hammond Monday-qualified for this week’s Dana Open in Sylvania, Ohio, before carding back-to-back rounds of 3-under 68 to not only make the cut, but she’s also T-20 and just five shots back of leader Annie Park heading into Saturday.

“I was a little nervous going into today,” Hammond said.
